RESOLUTION NO. 52 24
A RESOLUTION TRANSFERRING/APPROPRIATING AN APPROPRIATION OUT
AND FROM A DESIGNATED FUND ACCOUNT AND CREDITING SAME TO A
DESIGNATED FUND ACCOUNT TO ASSIST THE ANIMAL CONTROL AND
PROTECTION AGENCY WITH PURCHASING ANIMAL MICROCHIPS.
WHEREAS, Section 143-2, Hawai`i Revised Statutes, requires that any person who
owns or harbors a dog or cat that is three months old or over must have that dog or cat implanted
with a microchip identification; and
WHEREAS, stray animals and lost pets are a persistent concern for Hawaii Island, and
before any animal can be placed into foster care, adopted, or reunited with its owner(s), the
ownership of the animal must first be verified, which is more easily done when the animal has
been microchipped; and
WHEREAS, the Animal Control and Protection Agency works with its transfer partners
to find homes for stray animals with positive dispositions to save as many as possible and to
minimize the need for euthanasia; and
WHEREAS, the Animal Control and Protection Agency is requesting finds to purchase
microchips so that more stray animals and lost pets can be fostered, adopted, or reunited (if not
already microchipped) with their owners; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE COUNTY OF HAWAI`I that
Contingency Relief Rinds from Council District 6 will be appropriated to the Animal Control and
